Dr. William McGill, Chairtnan of the Academic Senate at UCSD, then spoke, saying, "we grieve for our country where such things can happen." Ed Spriggs, head of the Black students' Union told the crowd that King's assassination "stands as the ultimate indictment of the USA, and concludes that period in American history when the Black oppressed appealed non- violently to the conscience of the White oppressors." He continued: "If the white community feels real compassion for Martin Luther King's death, they can prove it in deeds rather than with the usual conscience- solving rhetoric."

Students March Against Racism

Several hundred students and other members of the academic community marched through the streets of La Jolla In what was termed 'the beginning of a cru­sade to end white racism in America'.

After the morning commem­oration service for Martin Luther King, the slain civil rights leader, students were urged to join in an effort to persuade Americans oC the urgency Cor a dramatic change in attitude concerning race re­lations.

With the student's wallet in mind, the Coffee House has tried to suppress as many price hikes as possible despite an increase of from 5 to 10% on the monthly food bill.

To improve its business and its service, the Hut has designed a number of special events going on every week for students to enjoy themselves when they have the time. Good food that's inexpensive, a Hottenanny every Tuesday and Sunday, and live entertainment every Friday and Satur­day make the Hut a good place to be and a bad place to be without.

We all need some time for informality -- the Coffee Hut is an excellent place for those who have an hour to blow before their next class, or those who need to recover from their last one. lf the Coffee Hut weren't worth these few words, we wouldn't be wri­ting them.

Cited As Of Racism

Sometime In March the National Commission to the President on Civil Disorders issued a statement to the public that "white racism" was the cause of riots in the cities. Many were satisfied to hear that a commission of the government came out and agreed with the term that Black militants have been using for approximately two years to describe the exploited condition of Black people in this country. Others, with a broader view of real IiIe situations, felt that the commission's report was just a farce because it failed to really define and comprehend the true meaning of a racist society. For instance, the essential recommendation of this body to cure the country of racism was an all out spending effort on the part of the government to fund housing projects, poverty and welfare programs and to create more jobs for minority groups.

Our stay at UCSD was one of the high lights of our tour. Hav­ing an individual escort and s tay­ing in the dorms gave each player a true picture of the American Student. This experience wlll most definitely help create a bet­ter understanding between the United States and the Republic of Korea on the "People-to­People" level.

The interest shown by the es­corts was commendable. The scheduling and prior planning on your part was excellent. I write as if you had months to plan. We deeply appreciate those extra hours that helped make our stay a pleasant one. The trip to the San Diego Zoo has made a lastIng impression on the players.

Department pass­ed a resolution supporting Pro­fessor Pear::e and others who sent the telegram oC support to the Japanese student protestors. All grad s tudents in the depart­ment were asked to attend this meeting and notified of it through the campus mail.

Mrs. Litzenberger didn't choose to attend; that is her business. But we must reply to her attack which implies that a clique secretly got together and passed this resolution which they then sought to publicize as a un­animous act. The only truth in tbis accusation is that the vote taken at the meeting was unani­mous and nothlng more or less was asserted by the Times' ac­count.

It is too bad Mrs. Litzenberger doesn't read her mall more care­fully. We would welcome her to all meetings along with her opin­ions. We have not engaged in a "public display of dishonesty" as she so blatantly charges; the vote was " unanimously passed at a recent meeting of the Graduate Students In Literature", what could be clearer!

WA6DOT Radio Joins Matthews Campus

Re::idents of Camp Mathews may have noticed a new addi­tion to their skyline recently-­a 50 foot antenna farm erect­ed last Sunday by sweating, straining, and swearing UCSD Amateur Radio Club members and several passers-by who ~ntured too close and were sucked into the fray. The tower, supporting two high gain, di­rectional antennas, was secure­ly fastened to building 250 with spit, sticke m, and scotch tape. The first station contacted with the new antenna was located in central Japan and reported that the club was putting a ·very strong' signal across the Pa­cific. Stations in various parts of the U.S. were then contacted and all gave good signal reports on 15 meters. When several European radio stations were ·worked' later in the week, the effort was judged to be a success. Members were sur­prised to learn that the tower was still standing after Mon­day's earthquake.

This tower represents the latest and best in a series of antennas the club has erected. Operations started last October with a wire strung in among the birds and trees, barely above the roof. Results were mediocre, as was expected. A better antenna system was de­sired, and since the club had zero money, members finagled and scavenged up whatever could be had for free , The tower

itself, for example, was dis­covered in some leaves behind the Scripps radio station, WWD. It was depostied there by the waters of Noah's nood and had been busily gathering grunge ever since. UCSD hams glee­fully pounced on it and dragged it to its present location. It is fervently hoped that WWD will not want it back. other items were obtained by methods it is best not to describe In detail. Total cost of the new structure was less than $10.

WA6DOT, the club station, which is located in the rear of building 250, Camp Mathews, is on the air most mornings and evenings with 180 watts on 40-and l5-meter single side­band and 5 watts on 6-meter AM phone. More power is hoped for next year.

Individuals and organizations with communications needs which might be filled by radio are invited to contact the club for assistance. Aradio link was provided for the campus Soaring Club during their winter meet at Torrey Pines. More requests of this nature are hoped for. Although club equipment is li­mited as yet, it is often pos­sible to improvise as needed.

New members, regardless of past experience, are welcomed. Anyone who feels he might be interested in learning more a­bout ham radio should contact. the club president, Mike Ran­som at 278-1892.

New Sellers Movie Is Wild By Dave Sacherman

Peter Sellers is probably the finest comic actor of his time. Unfortunately, many of the film s in which he has appeared have been somewhat shabby endeavors which would have been disasters without him. His absence even for brief moments can be distinctly felt and tedium or pointless in­anity tends to set in. Such is the case with Blake Edwards' mad­cap comedy "The Party."

Inspired by the kooky party Ed­wards directed in "Breakfast at Titfany's", the film is a satirical look at what has become a famed Hollywood institution. Sellers in a positively brilliant characteri­zation of Hrundi V. Bakshi, a disaster-prone Hindu actor, was allowed to improvise much of his role and it is s hee r joy to watch him in action.

After inadvertently blowing up the fort on a movie set before the cameras could roll, Bakshi is told he will never work again in Hollywood. He is then accidental­ly invited to the studio head's lavish party where from the mo­ment he squeezes his s trange Morgan three-wheeler between a Rolls and a Cadillac he leaves havoc in his wake. Bakshi is in­nocent, excessively polite, yet totally out of place, and Sellers

facial expressions and move­ments are a delight to observe. Lovely Claudine Longet plays the starlet who shares the wild fun with Bakshi.

One of Sellers' finest moments of comic splendor is the com­pletely improvised scene when Bakshi deve lops an extreme blad­der emergency and finds the bathrooms continually occupied. Seeking relief in the s hrubbe ry he trips over the sprinkler sys­tem and sets it into motion. Re­turning to the house he is thwart­ed by the occasion of the young s tarlet's singing of a ballad to an attentive crowd. Bakshi is compelled to s uffer, rocking back am forth with an anguished smile

AS Presidential candidates (1 to and Michael Brown.

Sadly enough, the film 's first half brilliance is not sustained and even Sellers' presence can­not relieve many of the slap­stick, inane events to follow. A group of Ukranian dancers are dunked into the pool when Bakshi, groping in the dark, activates the ret ractabie dance floor. Then some college friends arrive with a psychedelically painted baby elephant and Bakshi indignantly demands this sacred beast be scrubbed in the foyer lily pond, engulfing the entire party in soap.

As a whole, "The Party" is an extremely enter talnlngaffair, but it is rather unfortunate that Se 1-lers' talent is the only positive attribute holding it intact.

AS Presidency Now A Three-Way Race

With the announcement of Sen­ator Tom Shepard for th e AS presidency yesterday, the cruef office of student government be­came a three-way race between two sophomores and a junior.

John Mishler, RA or Atlantis and a Revelle Junior, and Mich­ael BrQwn, a Revelle Sophomore, will be In the running against Shepard, who plans to transfer to Muir College next year. The sig­nificance of this year's race, in other words , is thatthe presiden­cy could go to a non-Revelle stu­dent.

With the election s till twelve days away, th e three candidates have yet to publish their plat­forms, although posters and painted dorm windows are al­ready in full production. Of course petitions are still available for all AS offices.

In his own way, each candidate is active In and familiar with student government.

Tom Shepard is now an AS Sen­ator-at-Large from Revelle. He

is chairman of the Student Center Committee and originator of the "Shepard Questionnaire," which appears regularly in the Triton Times.

John Mishler, as a resident assistant, has been involved in student ~dministratlon relations. He helped formulate a plan f'lr Revelle College government and has attended AS Senate meetings in the past.

Michael Brown of Argo Hall is perhaps the most outspoken of the three candidates. He has been acti ve in the Students of the Independent Left and also ran for the presidency (but bowed out be­fore the election) last year.

In the April elections more than 2000 undergraduates will choose their AS officers. In a special issue of the Triton Times, plat­forms and photographs of all can­didates will be printed. Meantime tbe three AS presidential hopefuls must make known their individual programs for the future of AS student government.

Sports Announcements In the final game of the Cham­

pionship Tournament, the But­Fakes beat the Purple Gophers 40-39. The But-Fakes led at the end of the first quarter, 14-4, and held this 10 poInt lead until the last 5 minutes of the game when the Purple Gophers made their now famous last quarter surge which fell short.

Joe Cox's drives around Chris­tinaz in the first quarter, Chris Sundstrom's 4 quarters of clutch play, Rob McCormick's and Al Hyatt 's rebounding, and Mike Ott's 2 last-minute baskets all contributed to the team victory.

Mark Waxman played a great defensive game and held Borth to 4 poInts. With Joe Cox sitting out most of the second half with 4 fouls, Tom Biglione played fine clutch basketball.

Actually the story of the game was told at the free throw line. The Gophers hit 13 for 36 (Chris­tinaz was 4 for 14) while the But­Fakes were 8 for 17 (8 for 10 In the second half).

Tom Bird played well for the Gophers, scoring 11 and playing a fine defensive game.

TENNIS This f)ekend was the time

for upset as the UCSD tennis squad co qupred both opponents they pia yed.

On Saturday, the Tritons beat the touring University of Color­ado team in a tough match. The Color-adoans had had a very suc­cessful tour of the Far West before coming here. and UCSD finished them 5-4.

On Monday, the team pulled off an upset win over a strong Cal Western squad 51/2 to 31/2. Though the match was called

off because of darkness, the 5 points earned by the Tritons meant they had already won the match.

With the win over the Western­ers, the Tritons can lay claim to the unofficial City champion­ship, because they have beaten all the local schools.

The coming week will show if the team can wIn outside the city, as they take on UC Santa Barbara and Cal State Fuller­ton in two very tough matches.

SOCCER The UCSD intercollegiate soc­

cer team is now holding practice sessions twice a week in prepara­tion for their initial season in the fall. This is not the club team that has been organized for the past few years, but is the under­graduate intercollegiate squad that will represent UCSD in the newly formed soccer league in southern California. This league includes teams from UC River­side, Biola, San Diego state, Long Beach State, and UC Irvine. Those interested should contact Dr. Sarolli for more information.

Coach Walt Hackett is anxious­ly antiCipating the 29th of April, because on that day, he will be able to see what kind of football talent he has on this campus.

Monday, April 29th, is the first day of Spring training, and equipment will be issued, and introductions given. The time will be around 4:30 in the PM. so you with labs should try to work out something.

The fir st game for UCSD will be held here at home, Saturday, the 28th of September, against La Verne. The remainder of the season will see games against St. Mary's, Loyola, Cal Lutheran, cal j~\..l" Cal Western, and Ne­vada Southern.

BASEBAll Last Saturday afternoon saw

the Tritons split adouble-headp.r with UC Riverside.

The first game was won by the UCSD squad by a score of 2-1 only by going into ext ra Innings. Coach Kieth Stowe's men couldn't take the second game, however, losing to the Highlanders 5-0.

The second game was called short, in fact, because of the length of the fir st. Robb Field, UC8D's home park, doesn't have

the facilities for night games. On Tuesday, the Tritons were

up against a strong team from Cal Western, and were dropped 4-2.

Atter the Riverside win, and two previous wins over the San Diego State JV, the Triton's re­cord stands at 4-4, which is pretty fair for a first year team. The players have a bye this week and

. go again the 19th of April.
